I'm just saying that if one of the largest retailers in the world is kicking sand in your face, you'd probably better stand up and take notice, lest you lose your girl.

You're seriously trying to argue that the reason you refuse to discuss a point is the fact the contributor may be of a young age?

Either way, you clearly stated you refuse all discussion; hence it's an attitude you hold toward the matter. In this case it's completely irrelevant - if you put an argument out there [and yours is perfectly adequate - if rather overwrought] the contributors age has no baring on their response; it's entirely down to their argumentative ability. Obviously age effects that but to deny any discussion on a mere chance a poster of a young age responds is against the whole point of a forum.

Just buy at the cheapest place. Brand loyalty never helps the customer.
Because:

1. I live in Brazil so I can't buy games from Amazon;
2. I had a bad experience with GameStop/Impulse;
3. I have over 350 games on Steam already and I enjoy having them all in one place;
4. I've been a loyal fan of Valve for well over a decade now.

[WARNING] Do not buy from Amazon.com (If you aren't from the USA) - STOP
I bought the Dragon Age pack and my account still 100% functional!

Ditto, South Americans have very few reliable places for fair priced games, much less huge sales.

http://www.deals4downloads.com/ is better. It has its own wish list, includes sales from more sites such as Amazon, lets you filter by discount percentage (e.g. all sales at least 60% off), etc.

Look pal. The contributer 'could' be 13 and I'm not going to berate a little silly kiddie by not agreeing with them. Would you?

I said I will refuse discusion for 2 reasons. Sigh...

1) I may be talking with a minor who will know nothing whether you believe this the case or not.
2) I don't care less what anybody thinks of my theory because I don't want a discussion. That's my choice like it or not, again. I mean what is it you don't understand here. Perhaps you ought to actually look at your own shallow motives here matey.

Agree or disagree as much as you like with the theory but I care not what on earth it is that you disagree about. It's just out there. Nothing else.

Say what you want about my decision to not elaborate if you want. But I was clear and open in my first post and do not need to say it again to someone who clearly wants and argument I'm done. Get it? Jesus

I'm from Brazil to, but I've bought some games at amazon early. You just need to link your credit card with a fake american address and phone. They have lots of games that can be activated on steam!

The guy edited after he got his account back, finally it had nothing to do with buying outside USA.

The irony, or coincidence is palpable.
